SCAR Gazetteer Information:
Each place can have one or more entries in the SCAR Composite Gazetteer, dependant on its origin. By viewing an individual entry, you may see multiple references to the same place.
SCAR uses a more general feature type coding, so each place will, in general, have multiple feature types.
